Each distributed test is independent - there's no way to share variables between servers.
You might be able to generate the names from the current host name plus a local counter. Otherwise, use multiple user-id files - put a different one on each server. Easiest would be to use the same name, but you could perhaps use the machineName() function. Read the file using CSV Dataset.
